Crescent  Town Open

Results

Saturday Feb 26, 2006

On Saturday over 168 entries were received for the tournament, hastingly causing the organizers to add 2 more tables

to conduct the event; 30 players competed in most of the events, and surprisingly

only one person who registered was a no show! Some players showed up expected to

signup and play only to be dissapointed, Rashid K was the only lucky one to get a chance. 

The finals of the Open was very interesting as both players put on a show and as the video

shows, it was very unique to see the change up method that Colin used to overcome a 2-0

deficit. In the 1200-2000 categories, newcommer Yi Lu ... WOW surprised everyone

winning 1 event and was 2nd in 2 others! Newcommers Asad Hussain, Jun Ya Chen

and Amir Sharazi, also fared well
